Well, this was somewhat unexpected after yesterday’s’ bonkers House hearing with FBI agent Peter Strzok.

Former FBI attorney Lisa Page, who had the now infamous affair with Strzok, earned praise from Republican lawmakers after testifying at a closed-door hearing on Friday.

Rep. Mark Meadows said she had been cooperative and even declared that she was “falsely accused” of not cooperating with the House’s investigation:

Lisa Page is impressing GOP lawmakers today. Several members have said she had been cooperative and provided them new information beyond Strzok’s testimony. Mark Meadows even went so far as to say that Page was “falsely accused” of not being cooperative.

Rep. Meadows doesn’t think there’s a need for her to testify publicly as well:

Meadows also said he sees NO need for Lisa Page to return for public session after her second private hearing on Monday. Dems believe GOP would look worse than they did in yesterday’s raucous hearing with Strzok if they brought her in for public session
